I'm rebuilding a dinosaur mail server that I built a couple years ago. It's running vpopmail 4.9.10 using cdb authentication. I'm upgrading to 5.3.8 with MySQL authentication.
I've build out the new 5.3.8 system and cluster of machines. It's all up, running and happy. I've NFS mounted all the home directories from the old cluster onto the new system so that I have ready access to the vpasswd and vpasswd.cdb files. They are mounted onto the local filesystem so that the paths in /var/qmail/users/assign are correct. I run vconvert -c -m test.domain.com and it exits quietly indicating success: mail8# ~vpopmail/bin/vconvert -c -m -v -d test.simerson.net version: 5.3.8 converting test.simerson.net done However, when I check the MySQL server, there's no entries in the vpopmail table that correspond to that domain. :-( I've tested this one step further. I've manually added a valid user ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) into the new mail system by manually adding it into the MySQL table. It works fine, authenticates, etc. That basically makes it work with my new mail system and the old one at the same time. Cool. Anyway, if I run vconvert again, it'll actually delete that entry from the vpopmail table. Is that supposed to happen? Everything on the new system works just fine except the vconvert function. Can anyone verify that vconvert actually does work? Can you sanitize a copy of a newer vpasswd file and send it my way so I can compare it to my ancient system to see if the format is still the same?
